Brewers at Phillies (3 ET) - Local Milwaukee announcer Brian Anderson, Joe Simpson and Braves pitcher John Smoltz.

 

Haha what a joke!

 

TBS is such crap

 

Chip/Buck doing the Red Sox Angels of course and that leaves Orsillo/Reynolds for the TwinSox/Rays

I would have loved any of those three groups of announcers, but alas, we're stuck with Dick. And to make matters worse, we'll probably get the "pleasure" of Joe Buck and Thom Brennaman in the next two rounds. #-o

 

I do find it interesting that they have no problem putting a Milwaukee announcer in charge of the Brewers playoff series. Too bad they won't let Len and Bob do our series.

[Jehrico]

I'd like to hug the guy who invented the mute button.

[UMFan83]

That would be awesome if Len and Bob could be called on to broadcast the games.

[CyHawk_Cub]

A Stockton in the booth is one too many Dicks in the equation

[imb]

everyone should be thanking god that we got dick stockton

 

the series just got 10 times more hilarious

[David]

jonathan freaking papeldong

[Cynosure]

Looks like I'll have this game on mute with Pat and Ron in the background. Not going to listen to TBS retards for 9 innings a day.

[Old Style]

We've been Dick'd.

 

:banghead:

[Andy]

What a load of crap.

We've got Dick Harden ... yeah - the joke is as old and enjoyable as getting beat over the head w/a wet noodle.

Great, just great. He's god awful at his job.

 

Get ready for "Air-a-miss Ramirez" and other badly pronounced names.

[BigbadB]

Can't we just ask for the guys who do golf and tennis, so they can whisper the play by play?

[Bote McBoteface]

I actually like Dick Stocton's voice for announcing.

 

 

Too bad he sucks so much at actually announcing.

Doesn't he do tennis some? Or am I thinking of only Dick Enberg? The Dicks are confusing me...

Is this game going to be aired anywhere on broadcast TV? like it was in '05 for the White sox games on WGN when there game was on ESPN.

well i just googled about it and i came up with this...

*WGN-TV does not have the right to broadcast any playoff games. All games in the first round will be on TBS, with no over the air television coverage. This is a decision of Major League Baseball, not WGN.

this is totally lame, i guess i'll have to catch this on the internet now.

Yeah, too bad there's not a local option for that.
